Hello world!

Believe it or not, this is the third time I have attempted this. I keep forgetting to click update (at least I assume that’s what I’m supposed to do, I’ll soon find out)

This is my first blog as you’ve probably guessed and it petrifies me. Is everyone as confused as me when they start?

I thought I’d embark on this venture as another means to publicize my first fantasy novel. It’s entitled ‘The Gateway, Book One of The search’, and is on sale on-line at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, W H Smith and Waterstones. The tale begins with the Grim, a five-masted wooden sailing ship, being blown off-course by a demon created storm. The ship and all its passengers are enticed to Sanctity, a tropical island of the Griffin Archipelago. Mayhem, spells going wrong for young heroes and heroines, friendships developing, romance blossoming and murder, all are in this book. Take a look you might enjoy it.

But to prove I am not entirely mercenary, although I think my wife may be, here is a photo of the latest light of my life. My new granddaughter, Constance Maria Helen.

I am married to Kath, a half-Irish blonde. We have three daughters and are also proud grandparents to three girls, four boys and great-grandparents of one absolutely smashing little girl. I am a henpecked novelist having had my trilogy "The Search" published. The first is "The Gateway" the second "Plague", and the third "I CANNOT KILL!". All are available on amazon.com, waterstones.com and at barnesandnoble.com. Until Warner Bros (or Peter Jackson, I don't mind!) buy them I spend my working life as a security guard for one of the largest food manufacturers in Europe. I've also started writing my fourth novel. Unfortunately six months ago I was diagnosed terminally ill with an estimate of 3 years left. As you can imgine this came as quite a shock and I am only now coming out of it.
